"Thero you go, Price " brgan Ma

"Solomon, this 1b no tlmo Tor me to
hang back. I shall offer a reward or
llvo thousand dollars for this Informa
tion." Tho Judge's tone was reooluto.
"Yes, sir, 1 shall rnako tho ilgtiro com
monsurato with tho poignant grief I
feel. Ho was ray friend nnd client "
The noxt morning It wns discovered
that some tlmo during the night the
Judge had tacked his anonymous com
munication on the court house door;
Just bolow It was another sheet of pa
per covered with bold script:
"To Whom It May Concorn:
"Judgo Slocum I'rlco assumes that
tho above was Intended for him since
he found It under his olllcu door on
the morning of the twenty-iirth Inst.
"Judge Price begs leave to stato It
08 his unqualified conviction that tho
writer Is a coward and a cur, nnd
offers a reward of live thousand dol
lars for any Information that will lead
to his ldentlilcatlon."
Tom Ware was seated nlono over
his breakfast. Ho had left his bed
ns tho pale morning light crept ucross
tho great Holds that wore alike bis
prldo and his dospnlr what wub tho
use of trying to nleep when sleep was
an Impossibility! Ho was about to
quit the table when big Stove en
tered the room to tiny there was a
white fellow nt tho door.
"Fetch him along In here." said
Ware.
The white fellow delivered a pen
ciled note from Murroll. When ho
was gone, tho planter ordered his
horse.
As Wnro rodo uwny from Hello
Plain ho cursed Murrell undor his
breath. His own inclination toward
evil was nevor robust; he could havo
uinnlvod over a long period of years
to despoil Hetty of hor property, but
murder nnd abduction wna quite an
other thing.
Threo miles from Hollo Plain be en
tered a brldlo path that led toward
tho river. A growth of small tlrabor
was Htandlng along tho wator'n odgo,
but as ho drew nouror, thoso better
ments which tho resident of thnt
lonely spot bad seen nt to make for
his own convenience, enmo undor his
scrutiny; thOBO consisted or a log
cabin nnd sovernl losser sheds.
Landing, ho advanced toward tho
cabin. As ho did so ho saw two wom
en at work heckling llnx under an
open shed. They wero tho wlfo and
daughter of Oeorgo Hicks, his over
seer's brother.
"Morning, Mrs. Hicks," ho said, ad
dressing hlniBolf to tho mothor, a
hulking ruffian of a woman. "Any
body with tho captnln?"
"Colonol Fentress Is."
"Humph!" muttered Ware. He
moved to tho door at tho cabin nnd
enterod tho room whero Murrell and
FontroBS wore seated .facing each
other across the breakfast table.
"Well, what tho devil do you want
of mo. ojyhow?" demanded the
planter.
- "How's your sister. TomT" lnqulied
Murrell. ,
"I reckon nho's tho way you'd ox
'poet her to bo." Ware dropped bis
voice to a whisper.
"John, you'll ruin yourself with
reur 1ii1 rrazy Infatuationl" t
was Fentress who spokn.
"No, I won't, colonol, but I'm not
going to dlBCUBs that. All I want Is
for Tom to go to Momphls and stay
there for a couple of days. When be
comes back Hollo Plain and its nig
gers will' bo us good as hla. I am go
ing to take tho girl away from there
tonight. How soon can you got nwny
from here, Tom?" ho askod abruptly.
"By God, I can't go too soon I" cried
the planter, Ptnggorlng to his feet tin
gave Fentress a hopeless beaten look.
"You're my witness that first and last
I've no part In this!"
Tho colonel shrugged his shoulders.
Murrell reachod out n hand and rest
ed It on Waro'H arm.

"Keep your wits, Tom, and within
a week people will have forgotten alt

Ware went from tho cabin.
"Look here, how about the boy

hands on him! I'll send him either
up or down the river and place him
In safo keeping whero you can get

"This must bo dono without vio

"Certainly, I understand. Which

"Could you tnko care of him for

Fentress.
"As well thero ns anywhere."
"Good!" said Fentress, and took his
leavo.
Three-quartero or an hour slipped
by, thou, piercing tho silence, Murrell
heard a shrill whistle; It wns twice
repeated; ho saw Hess go down to
tho landing again. A halt-hour
elapsed and a man issued from the
scattering growth of bushes that
screoncd tho shore. Tho newcomer
crossed tho clearing and cutorod tho
cabin. H wub a young fellow of
twenty-four or llvo, whose bronzod
fnco wore a reckless expression.
"Well, captain, whnt'a doing?" he
asked.
"It anythlng's to be dono, now Is
tho tlmo, Hues. What havo you to

"Well, I've scon the council of each
Clan division. They are ripe to start

Murrell gave him a moment of
moody regard,
"Twlco nlready I've named tho day
and hour, but now I'm going to put
It through!" Ho sot his teeth and
thrust out his Jaw.
"Captain, you'ro tho greatest follow

CHAPTER XVII.
The Judge Extends His Credit.
That afternoon Judgo I'rlco walked
out to Belle Plain. Solomon Mauarry
had known that this was a civility
Botty Malroy could by no means es
cape. He had been conscious of tho
Judge's purpose from tho moment It
existed In tho germ state, and ho had
striven to divert him, but his striving
had been In vnln, ror though tho
Judgo valued Mr. Mahaffy because of
certain sterling qualities which he
professed to discern beneath tho bard
crust that made up tho external man,
ho wns not disposed to accept him ns
his mentor In nice matters of taste
nnd gentlemanly reeling. He owed it
to himself personally to .tender his
sympathy. Miss Mnlroy must havo
heard something of tho honorabio
pnrt ho had played; surely she could
not be In Ignorance of tho fact that
the lawless element, dreading his lur
thor activities, had threatened lilra.
She must know, too, about that re
ward or llvo thousand dollars. Cer
tainly her grief could not blind hor
to tho fact that he had met tho situ
ation with a lnrgeneas of public spirit
that was an Impressive lesson to the
entire community.
These wero all points over which
ho nnd Mahaffy had wrangled, nnd
ho felt thnt his friend, In seeking to
kecji him away from Bello Plain, wna
standing squnroly In his light. Ho
really could not understand Solomon
or his objections. Ho pointed out
that Norton had probably leit a will
no one knew yet probably his es
tate would go to his Intended wife
what more llkoly? He understood
Norton had cousins somewhere In
middle Tennessee thero was tho"1 at
tractive possibility of extended litiga
tion. Miss Malroy needed a strong,
clear brain to guldo her pnst those
difficulties hla agile fancy assembled
In hor path. Ho beamed on his trleilti
with n wldo sunny smllo.
"You mean Bho needs a lawyer,
Price?" Insinuated Mahaffy.
"That slap at mo, Solomon, Is un
worthy of you. Just name some one,
will you, who has shown an Interest
comparable to mine? I may Hay 1
havo devoted my entire energy to her
affairs, and with disinterestedness. 1
havo made myself felt. Will you men

"Aro you looking for some ono to
take n pot shot at you?" Inquired Ma
haffy, sourly.
"Your remark uncovers my fondest
hope, Solomon I'd glvo live yenrs of
my ltfo Just to be shot at that would
round out the episode of the letter
nicely"; again tho Judgo beamed on
Mnhaffy with that wide and sunny
smllo of IiIb.
"Why don't you let tho boy go
alone, Prlco?" suggested Mahaffy. He
lacked that senso of sublime confi
dence In tho Judge's tact and discre
tion of which the Judge, himself, en
tertained never a doubt.
"I shall not obtrude myself, Solo
mon; i shall merely walk out to Belle
Plain and leavo a civil message I
know what's due Miss Malroy In her
bereaved state she has sustained no
ordinary loss, nnd in no ordinary
fashion. Sho has been the center or
u striking nnd profoundly moving
tragedy! I would glvo a good deal to
know If my Into client left a will "
"You might RPfc hor," said Mahaffy
cynically. "Nothing like going to

"Solomon, Solomon, give mo credit

TALE OF WINCHESTER BATTLE
Col. Mulligan Met Death During Fight
Near Winchester 8cvcrnl
Thrilling Incidents Told.
Comrado B. M. Clayton, Twenty
sixth Ohio, spoaks of a fight near
Winchester as happening July 20. It
was the first or. second Sunday In
August The command I was In was
on Un way back from tho battle of
Monocacy Junction, near Frederick,
Md., through Virginia. Vo crossed
the Shenandoah river near Snicker's
Gap, and thoro got with Mulligan's
brlgado and the First New York cav
alry, which was very good company,
writes Wm. C. Eckman of Atlantic
City, N, J., In the National Tribune.
W went around Winchester and
struck tho plko at KernBtown on
Saturday.
Tho command to which I belonged
was a detachment of Colo's Rangers,
under Captain Link. He was In the
advance. Tho First New York cav-
ralry did picket duty that night. On
Sunday many woro cheated out of
breakfasts. Just at that time that
old familiar coll, "Boole and saddles,"
sounded. The robs had sighted us,
and opened flro on us with three
small guns. Wo wero ordered to
charge. Wo drove them back, but
wo did not get back to our break
fast. That started the fun for tho;
day. Wo had a few chargers and1'
skirmishers with Colo's cavalry.
About 8 n. m. Ihn unnrnv ramo nut
ot tho woods on our left and front, '
and It was thero that Colonel Mulli
gan was killed and left in the hands
of tho enemy. Ho and Captain Link
were leading ua nnd tho First New
York cavalry, but tho rebs were too
much for us. I did not see any other
command but Mulligan's and Cole's
men.
On Wednesday of that week soma
of Captain Link's men escaped, and
Mrs. Mulligan, under a flag of truce,
went through the lines to Winchester
1 and brought her husband's body to
Martlnsburg. Wo covered tho retreat
through Wlnchoster on tho north of
town. I was sent along with 25 or
80 men out behind a stone fonco to
hold the rebs In Winchester until
General Avcrlll's cavalry camo from
Berryvlllo. But wo were cut off be
tween tha twn linns Wo hn a
! guldo with us, and ho led us through
woods and brush and swamps till
wo struck the old dirt road to Mar-

and Swamps.
tlnsburg. It was night then, and we
had not had time to eat our break
fast yet. It was a beautiful moon
light nlghj very quiet. Lieutenant
Wesley Mann was In command. We
came in contact with a squad of Im
boden's cavalry, and I had my horse
killed. Cole's Rangers came In, well
armed. I ran along a deep gully un
til I thought It safe, then I camo out
I waB not long without a horso. My
now mount was an old swaybacked
horse, but nevertheless she took mo
to Martlnsburg. I got thero Monday
about 3 o'clock. I had had nothing
to eat since Sunday night except n
fow pieces of hardtack. Early's ui.i
were leaving thoro, nnd I sllpyed
Ihjough to Williamsburg, Md.. nnd
thero I found my comrades. They
thought I had been killed or cap
tured. He Knew His Limit.
A colonel under General Leo some
tlmos Indulged in more npplejack than
was good for Jilm. Passing him ono
evening leaning against a treo, the
general said:
"Good evening colonel. Come over
to my tent for n moment, please."
" 'S-scuBo mu, g-g-er'ral, 's-scuso
mu," replied tho colonel. "It's 'bout
a' I can do to sthay whero I am."
Sear's Whereabouts.
A membor of Doubleday's Fourth
N. Y. H. A., whllo lying In camp on
tho banks of tho Rapldan, was ap
proached by an officer, who asked:
"Do you know anything of Major
Sear's whereabouts?"
"Yls, sor," was the reply. "He Just
elnt them down to th' creek to be
washed."
Perkins Was Collected.
"I understand," said the investigat
ing officer, "that you and Private
Perkins wero cnlm nnd collected when
tho explosion occurred at the powder
magazlno."
"Well yes, e!r," replied tho sol
dier slowly. "That Is, I was calm,
but poor Perkins, ho wns collected."

of blood and matter. His wholo head
was covered for a few months, then It
went to his ear, shoulders, and his
wholo body. It seemed to com out
thick and sticky on hla head, while
on tho other parts of his body It was
moro like water coming out of tho
skin. Ho would scratch until tho erup

and gradually spread. Tho least little
stir or rub would cause tho sores to
bleed, Bpread and Itch. Never had a

"Tho sores wero horrid to look at.
It lasted until ho was about two and a

wo used Cutlcura Soap and Cutlcura
Ointment. Wo put tho Cutrcura Oint

with Cutlcura Soap and warm water

Tuberculosis Day In October.
Churches and religious societies, to
the number of at least 100,000, will
be urged to glvo special attention to
the prevention of tuberculosis on Sun
day, October 27, or on some day dur
ing the week preceding or the week
following that date. Thla season has
been set apart and designated as the
Third National Tuberculosis Day by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of Tuberculosis. Tu.
berculosis Day waa originally set on
April 28, but was postponed because
of a conflict with Conservation Sun
day of the Men and Religion Forward
movement, which was held on thnt
date. Tho observance of Tuberculosis
Day in the fall of the year will be uti
lized by anti-tuberculosis workers not
only for the general education of
churchgoers on consumption, but also
for tho purpose of interesting them In

" Hooper, Nebraska. "I am very glad
to tell how Lydla E.Pinkham's Vegetable

scarcely able to do my work. I took doc
tors' medicines and used local treatments
but was not helped. I had such awful
bearing down pains and my back was so
weak I could hardly walk and could not
ride. I often had to sit up nights to sleep
and my friends thought I could not live
long. At my request my husband got
me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound nnd I commenced to
take it By tho time I hod taken the
seventh bottle my health had returned
nnd I began doing my washing and was a
well woman. Atono time for three weeks
I did all tho work for eighteen boarders
with no signs of my old troublo return
ing. Many have taken your medicine
af ter seeing what It did for mo. I would.
not tako $1000 and be whero I was. You
have my permission to uso my name if
it will aid anyone." Mrs. Susie Tem
pleton, Hooper, Nebraska.
